Early years care and education is available Monday to Friday at Karita kids in Alresford Colchester. Care and activities are tailored to meet the individual needs of children aged 0 to 5 years.

Special attention is paid to the development of language and communication skills and progress in all areas of learning is recorded in individual tracker books.

I employ a child led, play based learning program where children are free to choose from a variety of activities, both indoors and outside.

I will enable children to participate in play that activates all of the senses.

These activities will often include water and mud play, outdoor story telling and role play activities.

I aim to use the great outdoors to learn about the changing seasons, the life cycles of animals and plants, animal habitats and the nature all around us.

I firmly believe that learning takes time and every child needs to be given time to grow emotionally, physically, intellectually and spiritually, with guidance from caring, enthusiastic adults. The most important requirement for learning, is that the learner is happy and relaxed.
